I am Associate Professor (Docent) of Archaeology (2020). I obtained my Master's Degree from the University of Pisa in 2005, then I received my PhD from the IMT Institute for Advanced Studies in Lucca with a thesis on the use of Web3D technology and GIS for assessing the archaeological risk in the alluvial coastal plain of Pisa . As a visiting PhD I spent a research period at the University of Oxford. Between 2009 and 2012 I had collaborations both with Archaeological Superintendence of Tuscany and the University of Pisa. In 2013 I joined Lund University where I have been involved in several research projects and fieldwork activities conducted in Sweden, Italy, Greece, Egypt, and Lebanon. My research focuses on the way digital technologies can improve landscape and site interpretation and how 3D spatial analysis can contribute to investigating the sensory dimension of the ancient space.
